To check if the Intel decoder is present we call CoCreateInstance with CLSID_WebmMfVp8Dec and CLSID_WebmMfVp9Dec.
The properly fails when the intel framework isn't installed; however it will return true on 64 bits Firefox and a E_OUTOFMEMORY error on 32 bits.
Now this is likely an error in the Intel framework that shouldn't report the framework to be available on hardware that do not support it ; but we need to find a way to get around this.

Jean-Yves: now that we've disabled the Intel hardware decoder (in bug 1225019), can we demote this WMF bug from P1 to P2?
Depends on: 1225019

It's not that important now anyhow as we detect the failure when creating the decoder and then attempt to create another one.
